Starscream’s Beginning

Chapter 3 - The Past World; A Crazy World


At first, I was in a world where nothing ever came to life; therefore, nothing will ever die.
I was the only life there, walking alone on an endless road to nowhere.
Lights that surrounded me were glowing, helping me see the way; however, they started to fade away slowly.
They were disturbed. I was disturbed. I felt like I was being torn apart. Why did it hurt so much?
When I first dared to open my optics to the world I've never seen before, all I saw was … sadness.
She would smile for a minute, but then her smile will fade, and tears roll down her face-plates.
The tears coming down from her k red optics made my spark ache. I could feel sadness.  

"Starscream~."

   I am Starscream. Now I know who I am for sure. The next question: what is my destiny?
For what purpose was I brought here?
She's still sad. She's smiling, but she's still sad.
She's trying to comfort me by rubbing my back and sending calm waves through our weak bond.
I felt safe and relaxed, but why is she comforting me when she's the one who needs comfort?
Does she want me to be happy even though she's sad? What is this crazy world that I was brought into? Why is it so sad?
The world I was walking endlessly in, the world of lights, didn't have happiness or sadness. There were no emotions.
There, I had no reason to be happy, and I had no reason to be sad.
I was walking, curious to know where this road will lead, and I believe it led to the warm arms of the very femme holding me right now.
She smiles, but there's sadness in her optics.
What a crazy world...

   Skyjewel was worried that her sparkling wasn't making any noises. He wasn't crying or clicking. He was staring at her with curiosity. She smiled. "What are you thinking about, little one?" She rubbed his helm gently. “You probably think why we have wings or something like that.” She chuckled and continued to rub his back.
Starscream felt tired. The message made him drowsy. It didn’t take long for the tiny seeker to fall asleep while listening to his carrier’s spark beat.


   A few months passed, and Starscream was growing well and healthy. Time was aging everyone. Three more months and Starscream would be able to spread his wings and learn how to fly; however, Skyjewel feels like that she will never see that happen. Those weird feelings she keeps getting about losing her sparkling never left her alone. -I hope these feelings will go away!- 
An hour passed, and Jetfire came back to the dorm he shared with his new family. He wasn't happy at all. "Skyjewel, we need to talk." He said in a serious tone. A tone that he never used with her, only with his soldiers. 
Skyjewel laid Starscream in his special-made crib and walked over to her mate. His tone and the look in his optics made her worried. "What is it?" She smiled to help calm him down a bit.
"They want to start a war with other neighboring city-states over Energon, and they want me to lead the soldiers." Jetfire didn't look at her. It was the only way he could break it out to her, and give her the message that he might die in this war. 
Sky closed her optics. "I see. Do what you must to protect Vos." She turned away from him. Tears began to roll down her face-plates. This year, she had been crying more than she used to. She's crying over the fact that she might lose Starscream, and now over the fact that her world might be destroyed over the fact that there's not enough Energon for everyone, and over the fact that this might the last time, she'll see her mate ever again. 
"Please understand that this isn't my choice, Skyjewel." Tears began to run down from his burning red optics. "Both our city and the other cities need Energon. This is a war!" 
"I understand." She whispered. 
"I'm sorry, my love. I'm sorry." 
"Don't be. You're only trying to protect everyone." Skyjewel's words became unclear from her sobbing. She could feel her world already torn apart.  
"Starting from tomorrow, you must take Starscream and go away from here and hide. According to what we know, they're going to strike anytime soon. Tall buildings will be the first to fall." She nodded. "And tomorrow I will join the war, leading my soldiers hopefully to victory, so if anything happened to me, I want to you to know that I never regretted meeting you, even though there was a time where I thought we should have never met; however, I'm glad we did. My life was meaningless, and you were the only one who saw through my flaws. You were there for me. Thank you for everything, Skyjewel. You came into my life and made everything wonderful. Not only that, but you also gave me the most precious gift, Starscream. I love you, Skyjewel. Please forgive me for the times I was a jerk. I love you." Jetfire pulled Skyjewel into a tight embrace. Trying to hold her as close as possible to him as if she was now fading away as if she's the support he needs to stay alive. "I love you, and please forgive me." 
"There’s nothing to forgive! I love you too, Jetfire." Skyjewel hid her face in his chest, crying her spark out. She wanted to be with him, feel him as close as she can. Yes, she doesn't want him to go, but sometimes duties must be put first. "Jetfire, can we share one final night? Together?" 
"But Starscream-" 
"Starscream won't understand what's going on." She lifted her helm to look at Jetfire. "Just this night?" 
Jetfire looked into her bright optics. More tears rolled down his face. He couldn't take it more. The pain inside of him was killing him. After this night, he will never see her again. The very femme he met on the flight deck and fell in love with. The very femme who stood by his side when no one else did, and the only one who loved him despite everything he had done, without her, Jetfire would have gone crazy. "Skyjewel~" she was indeed a jewel. Her spark was pure gold. It was filled with kindness and love. Jetfire slowly leaned forward to capture his mate's lips. This is their last kiss; their goodbye kiss. This is their final night. Life is indeed cruel. 


* * *


   Sadness was everywhere. First, it was Skyjewel who was sad. Then, it was Jetfire. Now, it's me.
Why is this world so sad? I saw moments of happiness, but I can tell they're still sad.
Does this world know what happiness is? Will I know what happiness is?
I was born to the world where they constantly shed tears. I'm still wondering why.
Should I also shed tears? Will there be days where I will shed tears?
In the world of lights, there was no such thing as happiness or sadness.
However, now that I'm thinking about it, I remember hearing a voice saying that this place was a very sad place.
Where they talking about the world of lights or the world I am now in?
Seeing the two seekers in front of me, holding each other like one of them is going to lose the other makes me … sad.
It is a sad, sad world.

   "Skyjewel?" Jetfire, with all the strength left in him, called his mate. She didn't answer but nodded; she was laying on top of if. "Promise me that you won't be sad to the fact that everything that was once between us will be over. Be glad that it happened." 
A tear rolled her optics. "I promise." Skyjewel knew what he was talking about. He didn’t want her to grieve if anything happened to him. “I promise~”


* * *

Indeed … it is a sad world.

To be continued

The war is about to begin in Vos, the war over Energon. Skyjewel's worst fears are coming true! She's not only going to lose her sparkling but also her mate. The world they're living in now it sad, very sad. Starscream wonders why it is so sad and realizes that the World of Lights was also a sad place, but he couldn't feel it, though; he remembered a voice whispering to him that it was a sad place, but which is it?
I created the whole war thingy, I'm not sure if those who had created Transformers actually made a war of Energon. ^^;
